Soverel Sends Duan to the Rail
Level 11
: Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante
With the board reading Q♣10♥A♣, Bin Duan was in the small blind and had just bet 85,000, only for Sam Soverel to shove for around 380,000 from the big blind. Duan, who was slightly covered, made the call, putting his tournament life at risk.
Bin Duan: A♥Q♦
Sam Soverel: K♦J♥
Duan had flopped top two pair, but Soverel was ahead with the nut-straight. Duan couldn't fill up as the rest of the board ran out K♥4♥, confirming his elimination while Soverel took down the sizable pot.
